I've been in england since saturday. So far i've had a ball of a time, getting completely smashed about every night since i've been here now i'm pretty much ready to pass out for the next few days. My friend here is a photographer, he's been taking me to all these indie gigs. First off, was this indie party called 'the frog', the music is okay but i must say i really enjoy the young indie punk girlies walking around the place. I also saw this band called the baby shambles, the lead singer is this spaced out guy called pete doherty whos apparently some big drug addict and everyone follows him around like he is the messiah. His music isn't much to be desired for.
Anyway...
I want you uk people to recommend me some shows. I already know about the christmas warp rave but don't know any of the artists playing, are they any good? I'm looking for some good electro, please help me out.

there's this cool place called "The fraction" which is on the north end of a street on the western corner of central park, just north of rio grande, where they're having hanukka-parties all year round, but make sure you don't go south by the suez-canal, 'cause then you'll be in the redlight-district, which is almost in the middle of the red-sea, where the pirates roam...

i was sitting on the tube today and the guy across from me was chewing gum. everytime he made a chew he opened his mouth so wide it looked like he was trying to bite off a big apple. this made me wonder why americans sound the way they do.

no, not really. the only electro that site really had to offer was "house/electro" but thanks for the link anyway. i've been to a few decent places i'm just specifically looking for a good electro party to go to... definitly going to that warp rave.
anyone in the london area know of anything worthwhile?

i went to 'the frog' again tonight. ash played. yippee. i got pushed around in the crowd for a while until i decided that they sucked and left. i was sitting in the band room just as they finished, the timothy guy came in so i decided to leave, as i left i said "have a good night" and he patted me on the back returning the centiment. good guy i guess. enough of this indie shit someone please help me. to be fair though they did play(dj) a few old rock classics which was good.

hostels are actually quite expensive, not really sure what they charge seeing as i haven't stayed in one over 2 years. i know of this great little hotel though that charge £15 a night, it's rather crummy, right next to the tube station, cheap breakfast (scrambled eggs on toast wit small orange juice) but quite a classic place to stay, they have this really cool backyard, if you climb out your window (on the ground floor) you can sit under the tree in the long grass while enjoying some herbal pleasures.
on a slightly related note i was quite surprised to find that fresh magic mushrooms are now legal in the uk. they are sold everywhere around camden. pretty cool!

Sooo the warp gig is tonight....and i'm not fucking going! it is okay, i have had the whole week to come to terms with it. it seems no one wants to go to a bloody warp rave, instead i will be going to a place called fabric (which i've been to before and found it to be overly packed and a venue for the worst kind of drum n bass) to hear some clown called mylo. i listened to mylo's album and found it mildly enjoyable, the funky house thing should be good when i have a few whiskeys in me later tonight. WARP damnit!
Besides this minor setback things are going well. my routine of drinking has not changed much. i met this cute croation girl called Andreja last night. Andreja is 25, a gemini and has no interest in music because she finds it to be a fashion statement. Interesting. I'm hoping she comes to the new years party, wish me luck.

so we were standing in the line for about 2 hours, 2 of our 'crew' had already decided to leave ("i couldn't be arsed"). half an hour later we give up, get in a taxi and go to the warp rave. yes! it was a good rave, i drank copias amounts of whiskeys and danced away to miss kittin who played a really varied set. the whole warehouse effort was really dark, the atmosphere wasn't the best, the closer you were to the speakers the better it was.
now i have to find a way to get to the new years rave. i must see the almighty pusher.
